It had took some time for the Na'vi to trust Grace and allow her back in Hometree. However, when she did, the people realised how much they had missed her. Trust was hard to gain for the Na'vi, since what happened after the school, Grace lost a big mass of trust. "Sa'nok!" Denahi watched as her people ran towards Grace.

Grace stroked their hair of the children and told them how much they had grown since she had last saw them. It was nice to see her people happy once again, and to see Grace.

Mukata inched behind Denahi as they walked towards Grace, "Sa'nok..." Grace's face dropped when she saw Denahi and Mukata. Denahi was a special student of hers. And their parents were just as important. Immediately, Grace pulled them both into her arms, "How beautiful you both have become."  Mukata pulled away with an ick in his throat, "I am not a child anymore!"

Denahi and Grace both laughed at the teenage reaction from Mukata. "We have missed you, Grace," Denahi told her before warning Mukata with her eyes. Mukata nodded his head before Grace told him he can go spend time with his friends.

Grace and Denahi sat down on the ground, "I see you have made friends with Jake." Denahi's head turned to see Jake staring at them before quickly turning his head when Denahi looked over at him. She chuckled, "If you can call it that."

Grace knew Denahi was good for Jake. Since Quaritch had took him under his wing, Jake was set straight on following his orders. However, the more Jake spent time with Denahi and learned the way of the Na'vi, his head was starting to turn.

"Jake is nice. A little stupid at times, but nice..." Denahi mentioned before Grace laughed and nodded her head in agreement.
He was an idiot and quick with a comeback. And always had something to say back.

Grace looked over at Denahi, noticing the way she watched him with that look. A look that would get them into deep trouble. Until Jake began to walk over and Denahi turned her head, pretending she wasn't staring.

"Mornin'," Jake said to the two of them. Grace raised her eyebrow at Denahi after she stumbled on her feet, bringing her closer to Jake. It was like watching two, young teenagers fall in love— or already in love.

"I do not have anything planned for us today. I need to help Kata carve arrows..." Denahi smiled at Jake, taking the day to rest from training and catch up on responsibilities.

"I can come with you," Jake said, smiling down at her. "I would like that. Grace, do you want to come with?" Denahi asked and Grace laughed when she noticed Jake shake his head to make sure she would say no.

"You two go have fun. I'll go speak with Neytiri," Grace said before ushering the two away, walking towards Neytiri.

"Oh..." Denahi looked up at Jake whom pretended to act confused as to why she did not want to come with them. "Shall we?" Jake asked, holding his arms out to allow her to walk first. Which was a great idea from him because Denahi could feel his eyes burning into her back, or was it because she let her tail swipe against his leg?
